Jesus is called the WORD. He speaks things that are not into existence... with just a word.

And [the LORD] God said, Let there be light: and there was light. (Genesis 1:3)

For He spoke, and it came to be; He commanded, and it stood firm. (Psalm 33:9)

This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made them. (Genesis 2:4)

Many people do not realize that Jesus is the Creator of everything that exists.

"For by Him all things were created: Things in Heaven and on Earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the head of the body, the church; He is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. For God [the Father] was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on Earth or things in Heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross." (Colossians 1:16-20)

Because Jesus is God and He speaks for the Godhead, His words have incredible power.

"For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm." (Psalm 33:9)

"In the beginning [before anything was made] was [Jesus] the Word, and the Word was with God [Jesus was with the Father and the Holy Spirit], and the Word was [also] God [the same in substance as the Father and the Holy Spirit]. He [Jesus] was with God [the Father and Holy Spirit] in the beginning. Through Him [Jesus] all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made." (John 1:1-3)
